Ancho= x
Largo= 3x+12 ("12 pies más (adición) que 3 veces (multiplicación) su ancho (x)")
<span>En el problema incluyen el perímetro (la suma de todos los lados de una figura). </span>En un rectángulo, los lados opuestos son congruentes, así que para calcular el valor de x, tenemos que sumar nuestras ecuaciones.
(3x+12)+(3x+12)+x+x=64
8x=64-24
x=40/8
x=5
Luego lo único que queda hacer es substituir el valor de x en cada ecuación para calcular los valores que te piden.
Answer:
70
Step-by-step explanation:
"75% more customers than last week" means (100% + 75%) of 40, or
1.75(40 customers) = 70 customers this week
By using the information you have, you can use make a proportion to solve this.
You burn 4 logs in 2 hours or 4/2. You are comparing this to your unknown number, x, over 8 hours. So it looks like this 4/2 = x/8. You read it as four logs in two hours is x logs in eight hours. To solve you cross multiply. You do 2 times x and 4 times eight. That would be 2x= 32. Your goal is getting x alone, so divide each side by 2. Your answer is x= 16 logs in eight hours. You can solve this different and maybe easier ways but this is the best way if you want to get used to going this in algebra. Hope that helps! :)
B. End of the reconstruction.
